Review: PERCY JACKSON & THE OLYMPIANS: THE LIGHTNING THEIF

Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning Thief plays as if the Harry Potter films had mated with The Mummy Trilogy and conceived a retarded child. As you might expect, the baby is not great by any means. But it is rather fun.

Review: HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE

I realize this may get me avada kedavrad, but I almost wish I had gone to see I Love You Beth Cooper instead, so unsatisfying is this movie. The last time I felt this...bland...after a film was after seeing The Golden Compass in 2007, a film that Half-Blood Prince's problems bear a striking resemblance to.

BREAKING NEWS: Harry Potter 6 pushed to July 2009

In a recent press release Warner Bros. announced that they will push Harry Potter and the Half-Blood prince from a Thanksgiving weekend release over to July 17, 2009.

in their press release they wrote:

"Our reasons for shifting 'Half-Blood Prince' to summer are twofold: we know the summer season is an ideal window for a family tent pole release, as proven by the success of our last Harry Potter film, which is the second-highest grossing film in the franchise, behind only the first installment. Additionally, like every other studio, we are still feeling the repercussions of the writers' strike, which impacted the readiness of scripts for other films--changing the competitive landscape for 2009 and offering new windows of opportunity that we wanted to take advantage of. We agreed the best strategy was to move 'Half-Blood Prince' to July, where it perfectly fills the gap for a major tent pole release for mid-summer."

consequently, Disney moved Bolt's release date up a week to November 21, 2008 in response to this announcement.

Upcoming Film: Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince (With Trailer)

The trailer for Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince is now online. It looks rather epic, and Michael Gambon looks to be playing a better role of Dumbledore than he did in the previous films. I think this looks to be the best Harry Potter film in the franchise so far, with a whole new style and manner about it.
